@platy Yes, the graphics look superb and the gameplay looks a lot of fun. I'm looking forward to it! Aside from the convoluted story, I can't wait to play it.
Ooh, that's cool! What were you thoughts on the HD remix for KH1? What did you think about the Mysterious Figure boss?
Yeah, they transported CoM into a 3D game. I feel it gets a little crazy, trying to manage your cards in 3D during battle especially against the Organization bosses. I've never played the original version, but I saw some video footages of it, and the card battle system felt more manageable in the 2D version (at least that was my impression?). The game does sort of feels stale if it's not focusing on the main Organization plot. At the least the graphics look nice, and thankfully, it's not too long of a game. KH2 final mix is a lot more fun, so I think that'll make up for the CoM remix.

Ah! The title of the topic almost scared me (I read it too quickly ^^;). It's good to hear that he's still able to play. Hopefully, he gets some rest and recovers soon.

I love Byo's voice and can't wait for their next release.
I'm glad to hear that Byo is back singing. Hopefully, he can growl/scream a little more in their heavier/darker songs in future releases. Definitely agree about REDRUM. It's one of my favorite songs on the mini-album.

19 hours ago, platy said:Yeah, I'm playing them on ps4. I'll be make a post when I'm done, hopefully before the 29th January. I actually really don't know much about Chi at all, so I was just guessing it didn't go into the keyblade war. So much to catch up on lol
Cool! It’s a lot of games to get through, but at least they’re mostly entertaining (besides the convoluted story). Ooh, okay yeah, the plot is a huge... mess, to nicely phrase it lol
I think you mentioned it earlier, but what are your thoughts on KH3? I saw the other day that the 100 Acre Woods is making a comeback in the newest game. I thought that world would be done after KH2 xD
-
-
@platy Yeah, I did the same thing since there were some games I never had the chance to play during its the original release. Luckily, games like 358/2 and Re:Coded are in movie format, so thank god, lol. Will you be playing it on the PS4? Out of all the HD remixes/final mix, I think my favorite one is KH2 final mix because of the additional bonus content and the way they changed some of the mechanisms in the game. I'd love to hear your opinions/thoughts when you get through it all.
And the story of Chi is still unfinished, too, at least from what I last read. I think KHInsider posted a whole playlist with English subs, showing the most important stuff from the Chi games. Here's the link to the playlist if you're interested: https://youtu.be/mZBcljsfUIM. Most of the videos aren't long, so it's tolerable. (There is also stuff from Union X that I have not yet watched. I can't ever seem to keep up with this big plot.)
I love the series and all, but I sort of hope it won't be like another 10 games. How the heck is it even going to continue after the Xehanort plot? Right now, the whole lore of Kingdom Hearts seems to be built around him. Oh, was Chi/Union Chi supposed to explain the Keyblade War and all that stuff before it? Or did I misremember that?
-
Amazing concept artwork! It looks so hauntingly creepy, but cool. Just out of curiosity, where did the inspiration come from?
I second platy on trying it out. It looks neat!
plastic_rainbow reacted to this -
Nice artwork! I really love the second one, and the flowers are a nice touch. I get a homey, calm feeling when looking at it. Were both pieces drawn by hand? (I apologize with my silly question. I love admiring other people's talents, but I have zero skill/knowledge when it comes to art. )

1 hour ago, platy said:Oops, I got confused. Yeah, Neverland & Disney Town in BBS! It's been so long since I played that things are getting blurred. Tron in KH2, it's an eyesore lol I didn't know it was a thing in DDD
What are your favorite worlds?
Oh, no! Are you going to play DDD in the compilation if you can? I totally recommend it. Are you also playing the previous games on the HD compilations? Other than Halloween Town, I like Hallow Bastion/Radiant Garden. It was fun and had a nice soundtrack. Also, I really liked one of the worlds in DDD, which is Symphony Sorcery. In BBS, I agree with Neverland. It was quite nice to explore more of the world. Deep Space was another cool world, too. In KH2, I enjoyed the Timeless River one - the black and white aesthetics were a cool touch.
1 hour ago, platy said:I just looked at the latest compilation of all games and it said there's a movie in there? I thought it was cutscenes from chi, but i might be wrong. I hope KH3 will be the last KH game but I doubt it. The story is just so convoluted, I wish they wouldn't drag it out any longer and work on some new IP
Oh, yeah. The movie on the compilation is actually additional stuff that further adds to the mobile Chi game. I think you had to play the game to understand it, so I was completely lost when I first watched it. Somewhere, I read that Nomura said KH3 will be the end of the "Xehanort" saga, but not the end of the KH game. I agree, though. The plot gets quite haywire, and the plot in DDD further complicates the storyline by adding some very left field elements into the story. At this point, I just wish the game would finish. I love the gameplay, but the story is a whole other beast.

I'm not sure about the in-store, but I did see it being sold on Tower Records. I didn't see it on the other visual kei music stores like Brand-X or Zeal Link.

1 hour ago, platy said:Mmm. Agrabah really is a chore. Little Mermaid was a massive improvement in KH2. Pirates of the Caribbean is a drag. I have a love/hate relationship with the Coliseum. Mulan was interesting. The ones I consistently like throughout the games are Halloween Town and Beast's Castle. I need to play through more games to make a final decision but yeah. (edit: Neverland KH2 and Disney Town were great too, also fuck tron)
So many fans complained about the musical aspect of the Little Mermaid. I personally didn't find it too horrible. Controls were much better even though there wasn't any combat. Agree with you on Halloween Town. I love the aesthetics of it and the costumes are a nice added touch. Something about that world is quite fun. Do you mean Neverland and Disney Town in Birth by Sleep? Trying to complete those mini-games in Disney Town for the trophy requirements are a nightmare, lol. Are you referring to the Tron world in KH2 or in Dream Drop Distance?
1 hour ago, platy said:I also played chi, but it was repetitive as fuck and I saw nothing in terms of story, despite playing for a couple of months so you can just watch the movie when it comes out lol.
Cool. I was thinking I might have to play it. Do you mean the movie version on the HD PS4 compilation? I did watch that one. The story was so-so (and mysterious as usual). At least the graphics were top-notch. I did remember reading somewhere that Nomura said the story of Chi won't be finished by KH3's release, and I'm kind of wondering how that works since Chi is supposed to be the prequel to all the games, lol.

35 minutes ago, platy said:Regarding the gummy ship, KH2's is very trippy and the camera goes insane sometimes too lol But it's a lot more fun than KH1's
I love the art style of CoM! I'm a sucker for pixel art. I don't mind the battle system or the grind, but it can be hard to get used to using the cards. I just wish we could explore new worlds. It gets annoying seeing the same disney characters over and over and the KH original worlds are some of my favorite places in the series, I mean The World That Never Was? Twilight/Traverse Town? Such atmospheric places, why can't we have more. Also, I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this before in this thread, but I've been trying to finish CoM for over 9 years now. I just can't defeat Marluxia. Every year I go back, grind and try a new strategy but I never defeated him. Maybe it's even a glitch? I'm glad I get to try it again a new console.
What did you think of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days? I thought KH works well on a PSP, but it did not work on a nintendo DS, like, at all and I didn't finish it mainly because the grind was excruciating and the gameplay was too repetitive.
Oh, you played it on the GBA? I never had the chance. I've only been able to play it on the HD compilation, so I'm not sure about any glitch with Marluxia. But I've managed to beat him on the HD version. There is also a very broken sleight called Lethal Frame, which I think was newly added for the HD version. It either makes the game easier or completely breaks it (depending on one's opinion). Yes, I couldn't agree more! I love the original worlds especially the expanded version of The World That Never Was. And the music in Traverse/Twilight fit quite beautifully. Unfortunately, I think Nomura said he's not going to be creating more original ones, which is quite a shame since those tend to be the more interesting ones (unless I'm remembering incorrectly). How did you think about the Disney worlds in the other installments? Some people I know complained about the unnecessary addition of Agrabah in KH2.
I think the story in KH 358/2 Days is fine, but I agree about the gameplay. It was a huge grind and way too repetitive. I've tried to complete it three times, but I lose interest in it just as quick. I think the game handled awkwardly on the Nintendo DS, but probably because I'm too used to playing most KH games on Sony products. The only one I have not played is KH Chi since it's on the phone, but I heard it's important story-wise. Have you played it yet?

21 minutes ago, platy said:Not yet, I'll get to it soon. From the trailer it looks pretty fun, if I knew there would be a KH compilation with 2.8 included coming out I would've waited a bit more to buy it.
I was fighting Ursula last night and I couldn't see anything I was doing, so it was a miracle I did it in one go. After that I went to the Peter Pan world and ugh, that camera does NOT work in cramped spaces. Can't wait to move on to chain of memories.
Ah, darn. Yeah, those compilations kind of snuck up. But you should totally play it when you get the chance. It's short, but it's a super fun teaser of KH3's battle system.
I remember the swimming controls in Atlantica not helping with that chaotic Urusla fight, so awkward and weird. Totally agree with you there about the Peter Pan world. I feel that's when the camera is at its worst especially when exploring inside the tiny spaces inside the ship. Like how am I supposed to fight an enemy when I have to fight against the camera controls? Also, somewhat random, but the gummy ship sections in KH1 kind of pale in comparison to the ones in KH2 - those were lots of fun there.
How do you like Chain of Memories? I feel it is unique with its card battle system, but it could get repetitive when you needed to grind/search for a particular 'door' card. I've heard lots of people disliking the battle system.
